Some laptops are designing to have two disparate battery systems, but with compatible physical specifications.
The longer life battery is a 10 volt device.
The lessor life battery is a 14 volt device.
That is by design in some popular laptops.
When this is done by design, the laptop will automatically adjust to the difference in voltage. Do not assume that is the case unless it is well documented.
Even if it was the design of the engineers, the larger capacity battery in the same physical case can generate more heat during changing. I n few cases, the batteries catch on fire. So this is part of the argument for using lower capacity batteries in a confined area. It is a safety issue.
That is way the spare battery is given as the better solution.
Ton's Hardware is one of many posts related to this idea.
Multiple batteries for a laptop?
